Howcome you never answer my PM's anymore :(

For the life of me I don’t understand why Garcia is getting a start and batting ahead of Lane and Swanson...throw Camargo in the OF and leave Ruiz at 3rd, Camargo couldn’t be worse than Adams, Kemp or Garcia

Also, was Sims scheduled to start? I know it doesn’t really matter but just leave the guy in the BP and see what you got there... I thought Fried would get the start even with Folty missing a start

[Garmel]

Perhaps I'm misreading this but if Snit/FO think that Sims needs to be looked at again as a starter over Fried they are out of their minds.

[nsacpi]

don't worry...nothings changed between us

It’s really quite mindblowing isn’t it? Bradley was ****ting on Snit in his article today

Sims got a little extra giddyup on the fastball tonight.

I remember when Minter was a bad draft pick.

tremendous inning by Minty

I remember when Minter was a bad draft pick.

i don't remember much being said when he was picked...i do remember some negative reaction to the Soroka and Riley picks that year

[Enscheff]

If Albies isn't going to steal with 1 out and Camargo batting, when exactly is he going to steal?

[rico43]

Just because ... I'd to remind 50 that he thought calling up Minter was "incredibly dumb move." Yet another reminder that we should thank God that no one on this board is in the ATL front office.

The failure to develop what could be a nice running game is one of the single biggest things I hold against Snit.

The reaction I remember is that some felt drafting a TJ recovering patient that high was a waste. Soroka indeed drew negative comments because several of the self-proclaimed experts couldn't find scouting info on him (he was not an obvious guy, to be sure). The Riley pick; wasn't there a sentiment that he would or should be a pitcher? I may be wrong about Riley; the Braves have had a bunch of guys who fell into that category.

I remember Riley being looked at as pitcher but I think by the draft most thought he was a hitter. The main objection I remember about it was that he probably would have been available with our next pick.

What a brilliant idea, keep gifting hits to Turner.

Boy, all these walks making Newcomb blush

[Enscheff]

Aaaaaand...Barves.
